Safety Precauons
Please read the following Safety Precauons before you start using the device.
• Keep these instructions in a safe place.
• Heed all warnings and follow all instructions.
• Sit at least 18” / 45 cm from the monitor.
• When installing the monitor, please leave 4” / 10 cm of open space around the
monitor for ventilation safety purposes.
• Always handle the display with care when moving it.
• Always use cabinets or stands or installation methods recommended by the
manufacturer of the monitor set.
• Always use furniture that can safely support the monitor.
• Always ensure the monitor is not overhanging the edge of the supporting
furniture.
• Always educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the
monitor or related equipment.
• Always route and manage cords and cables connected to your monitor so they
cannot be tripped over, pulled, or grabbed.
• Exercise caution when removing the rear cover of the monitor. This monitor
contains high-voltage parts.
• Do not use this equipment near water. To reduce the risk of fire or electric
shock, do not expose the monitor to rain or moisture.
• Avoid exposing the monitor to direct sunlight or other sources of sustained heat.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other devices (including amplifiers) that may increase the temperature of the
monitor to dangerous levels.
• Clean with a soft, dry cloth. If further cleaning is required, see the
“Maintenance” section in this guide for further instructions.
• Avoid touching the screen. Skin oils are difficult to remove.
• Do not touch, rub, or apply pressure to the monitor screen, as it may
permanently damage the screen.
• Do not place the monitor in an unstable location.
• Do not place the monitor on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases)
without anchoring both the furniture and the monitor to a suitable support.
• Do not place the monitor on cloth or other materials that may be located
between the product and supporting furniture.
• Place the monitor in a well-ventilated area. Do not place anything on the display
that prevents heat dissipation.

4
• Do not place heavy objects on the display, video cable, or power cord.
• Do not place items that might tempt children to climb, such as toys and remote
controls, on the top of the monitor or furniture on which the product is placed.
• If smoke appears, an abnormal noise, or a strange odor is present, immediately
switch the display off and contact your dealer or ViewSonic. It is dangerous to
continue using the display.
• Do not attempt to circumvent the safety provisions of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the
other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade and the third prong are provided for your safety. If the plug does not
fit into your outlet, obtain an adaptor and do not attempt to force the plug into
the outlet.
• Please confirm the distribution system installed in the building. The system
should provide a circuit breaker rated at 120/240V, 20A.
